Volunteering Queensland

Volunteering Queensland is the state peak body solely dedicated to advancing volunteering for the economic, social, cultural & environmental well-being of Queensland. They offer a range of training and resources for both volunteers, and those seeking volunteers.

The National Standards for Volunteer Involvement

The National Standards for Volunteer Involvement provide a sound framework for supporting the volunteer sector in Australia. The Standards are much easier to follow and are adaptable to different organisation types and different forms of volunteering which reflect the diversity of this growing sector.

The National Standards for Volunteer Involvement are available here for free download.
